I carry a gun because a cop is too heavy.  I carry a lot of ammo because I cant run very fast.

Most likely forgot it was there, my guess.

Wear it or lock it up.  That way you on't forget it.
The Right to Keep and BEAR Arms is enshrined explicitly in both our State and Federal Constitutions, yet most of us are afraid to actually excercise that Right, for very good reason: there is a good chance of being arrested........ and  THAT is a damned shame.  III.

As usual the media can't get the facts straight. Carrying in a posted place is not a Class III Misdemeanor (petty). If it was it would not be 90day jail term and $500 fine. If memory serves correct this is a Class I Misdemeanor. And yeah he probably forgot that he had it in there.
